700 and 800 East Middlefield Road
The development project includes three six-story office buildings and two six-level parking structures. Phase I of the project includes one of the office buildings , one of the parking structures, and the public improvements for the entire project . The public improvement plans for this development were approved for construction on December 17, 2019. The development provides for active transportation improvements, including the following:
• Separated sidewalks on East Middlefield Road and Maude Avenue;
• Improved bicycle crossing of East Middlefield Road at the State Route 237 frontage road intersection;
• Replacement of the traffic signal at East Middlefield Road and Bernardo Avenue intersection with a new eight-phase signal;
• Bicycle lanes on Maude Avenue within Mountain View; and
• A publicly accessible multi-use path through the site from East Middlefield Road to Maude Avenue.
All public improvements have been completed except for a new traffic signal at the intersection of Maude Avenue and the project’s driveway. The city limits for Mountain View and Sunnyvale run through this intersection; therefore, the traffic signal requires review and approval from both agencies. The permit for the traffic signal was delayed until April 2022 due to a longer-than- expected coordination process with the City of Sunnyvale . Council acceptance of the project’s completed improvements allows the developer to avoid incurring additional costs with maintenance and bonding obligations for these public improvements due to the traffic signal permitting delays. The contractual and appropriate bonding requirements for the new traffic signal will remain active and in place until the signal is completed, estimated in March 2023. Staff will return to Council to recommend acceptance of the traffic signal improvements when completed.
The public improvements recommended for acceptance include:
